A must-see on the way to the Haute Tarentaise resorts, this commune is made up of 4 hamlets that have managed to retain their rural identity.
Saint Marcel, Pomblière, Montfort and Montmagny. These unspoilt and relatively secluded villages boast no shortage of attractions, you’ll find interesting curiosities (cup-and-ring marked stones, chapel, former communal oven and drinks press in Montfort…).
This village is the departure point for some beautiful hikes to the authentic hamlets of Montfort and Hauteville. In the typical, unspoilt hamlet of Montfort, give your tastebuds a change of scenery and sample delicious Chinese specialities at the Auberge de Montfort. Enjoy homemade dishes on the restaurant’s sunny panoramic terrace!
As you make your way along a lovely, fun family walk through woodland on Les Nantieux trail, discover the local tree species, the life cycle of wood and how it transforms with the help of information boards.
Did you know that a cup-and-ring marked stone, a relic from Neolithic times, was discovered on the La Pérouse trail? Go and track it down!
